C5 PTS First Impressions
My setup is this:
No Tattoos
SoM w/ acumen
BW Robes
Sealed Majestic Jewelry
Full 75 prophet buffs on me and Kai
I haven't tested erase as carefully as others but I was watch a bishop friend of mine use it quite often on other players. By our estimate it's success rate is somewhere between 25 and 50%. 35% is definatly possibly. I will spend more time testing erase.
I only saw Betray fail once. I used it atleast 20 times on panthers and golems. I didn't catch many summoners around openly fighting around giran. Its a fun griefing spell at best. I suppose it would give you the edge fighting a dwarf or DA in a 1v1 but the time you take to cast betray you aren't healing. I did see betray trigger binding cubic.
Binding cubic seems to be just as crappy as in C4. It didn't land once in about 5 triggers.
I only managed to cast arcane disruption twice, failed once landed once.
Regarding pet damage. It feels way less. In 3 hours of pvp using Kai I only managed to get 3 killing blows. It felt like I was beating on archers for ages before they died or I got killed. Mind you, everyone was in B or A grade. I plan on doing my own tests on the damage reduction issue. I could very well be as low as 9-10% but it sure felt more like 25% last night.
